Greetings all, I've seen this thrown around a bit on the list archives, but none of the solutions presented seem to work for me. I've got a FreeBSD box with 2 NICs acting as a simple firewall. No special firewall rules, just the typical natd setup with a few redirect_port's to direct specific ports to certain machines on the internal LAN. One of my internal machines is a Windows NT 4.0 server with IIS, running an FTP and WWW server. There are no problems with the web server, but I'm running into what seems to be a common problem with the FTP server. The FTP client can connect, and can cd into different directories and download files. It cannot, however, get a file listing -- the connection just times out. I've told natd to forward ports 20 and 21, both TCP and UDP, to the internal address of the NT server, but to no avail. The client always seems to run in passive mode, too -- I can force a client into passive mode, but not into active mode. Anyone have any suggestions of how I can make this work? Thanks in advance. ********************************************************* * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.org * * www.dreamhaven.org/~data * * "Computers make very fast, very accurate mistakes." * ********************************************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
